Making Yourself A Priority

Stay tuned for more information about my NEW BOOK being released within the next few weeks called "Power to Change: Top experts share their power secrets" (Thrive Publishing). Here is an excerpt that I trust will not only encourage you on your personal journey, but I trust it will wet your appetite for more.

"Making Yourself a Priority"

"When traveling on an airplane, as a passenger you are instructed to put on your oxygen mask first before helping others. Your well-being is a prerequisite for the well being of those around you. The same is true in your everyday life. Taking time to step aside and get still and quiet enables you to hear your inner wisdom. You will be better equipped to make quality decisions about your next course of action. Some of the solutions to the issues you face can be found by listening to that small, still inner voice. During a time of rest, you will be able to hear your thoughts. You can recognize your own voice, even if it has been muffled by the chaos around you."

Please take the encouragement I share above and make time for yourself. You are the only YOU you/we have.

To read more powerful Power to Change secrets, please order a copy of my new book POWER TO CHANGE. Simply email me and I will share more information. My email address is lindamichelle@elegantdoves.org Thank you so very much for your prayers and support. Thank you for making the investment in yourself so that you can share with me and the world around you what God has deposited into you for us, as only you can share.

Be IN courage!!

United with you in strength and victory,
With love,

Be Strong and of Good Courage; Do not be Afraid nor Dismayed...

In light of the earthquake on the east coast yesterday, today's devotion from Sarah Young's Jesus Calling is a word in due season.

August 24
I AM ALL AROUND YOU, hovering over you even as you seek My Face. I am nearer than you dare believe, closer than the air you breathe. If My children could only recognize My Presence, they would never feel lonely again. I know every thought before you think it, every word before you speak it. My Presence impinges on your innermost being. Can you see the absurdity of trying to hide anything from Me? You can easily deceive other people, and even yourself; but I read you like an open, large-print book.

Deep within themselves, most people have some awareness of My imminent Presence. Many people run from Me and vehemently deny My existence, because My closeness terrifies them. But My own children have nothing to fear, for I have cleansed them by My blood and clothed them in My righteousness. Be blessed by My intimate nearness. Since I live in you, let Me also live through you, shining My Light into the darkness."
End Quote - Jesus Calling - Enjoying Peace in His Presence, by Sarah Young

In addition check out Rick Renner's on line video devotion Refuel With Rick: - Make Up Your Mind To Live Fearlessly And Peacefully in These Last Days! August 24 http://www.lightsource.com/ministry/refuel-with-rick/

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

His Grace IS Sufficient

From one of my favorite devotional book, I pray this encourages you today:

"And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness" Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me." ~ 2 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV


2 Corinthians 12:9
The Message (MSG)
(verses 7-10)
"Because of the extravagance of those revelations, and so I wouldn't get a big head, I was given the gift of a handicap to keep me in constant touch with my limitations. Satan's angel did his best to get me down; what he in fact did was push me to my knees. No danger then of walking around high and mighty! At first I didn't think of it as a gift, and begged God to remove it. Three times I did that, and then he told me,

My grace is enough; it's all you need.
My strength comes into its own in your weakness.
Once I heard that, I was glad to let it happen. I quit focusing on the handicap and began appreciating the gift. It was a case of Christ's strength moving in on my weakness. Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer, these limitations that cut me down to size—abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks. I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"....Never turn God's facts into hopes, or prayers, but simply use them as realities, and you will find them powerful as you believe them."
~ Prebendary H.W. Webb Peploe


"He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase;
To added affliction He added His mercies,
To multiplied trials His multiplied peace.

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father's full giving is only begun.

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth and giveth and giveth again."
~ Annie Johnson Flint
From Steams In the Desert - Volume 1


Be IN courage.

United with you in strength and victory,

Fear Not.

"The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him, and all the upright in heart shall glory." Psalm 64:10

"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
and whose hope is the Lord.
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
which spread out its roots by the river;
and will not fear when heat comes;
but its leaf will be green,
and will not be anxious in the year of drought,
nor will cease from yielding fruit." Jeremiah 17:7-8


"The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
and with my song I will praise Him." Psalm 28:7


"There's a stampede of fear out there. Let's not get caught in it. Let's be among those who stay calm. Let's recognize danger but not be overwhelmed. Acknowledge threats but refuse to be defined by them. Let others breathe the polluted air of anxiety, not us. Let's be numbered among those who hear a different voice, God's.

Enough of these shouts of despair, wails of doom. Why pay heed to the doomsayers on Wall Street or the purveyor of gloom in the newspaper? We will incline our ears elsewhere: upward. We will turn to our Maker, and because we do, we will fear less."

~ Fearless; Fear Not - For I Am With You Always Promise Book by Max Lucado

"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but (He has given us a spirit) of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control." 2 Timothy 1:7 Amplified


Be IN courage.
